She hasn’t made any comment yet on the matter.

“The cabinet therefore does not see that an heir to the throne or the King should abdicate if he/she would like to marry a partner of the same sex,” Rutte wrote in a letter to the parliament.

Additionally, Netherlands was the first country that legalized same-sex marriage back in 2001 but it was allowed for the royals until now.
